Escaped from jail.

Yesterday forenoon at 11.30 o'clo TX two
prisoners, Ira Hatch and Robert johnson
escaped from the workhouse of Portland
Jail and fastened through back yards and
over fences in the direction of Washington
street. Keeper Pennell gave chase aud sue
ceeded in catching johnson just as he was
climbing the sand bank above Washington
street. When Hatch saw that his CON-
panion was caught he raised a stone and
threatened to beat Mr. Pencils brains out
If he did not let him go. Mr.. Pencil re-
fused to do this and accordingly Hatch hurl.
ed huge stone at him but did not hit him. He
then fled over the hill toward the water
where he secured boat and rowed to East
DeeriDg. landing just beyond the Marine
Hospital. In the mean time Sheriff Sargent
and Officer Thrasher had been telephoned
and were in hot pursuit with team. Hatch
was caught on the farther end of Martins
Point bridge in about half an hour from the
time he made his escape. Both men were
returned to Jail and securely locked up. AT
the time they made their escape they were
at work getting in stock under the super
vision of Keeper Pennell Mr.. Pennell, who
stood in the doorway. stepped aside for a
moment and the men dashed by him before
he could stop them. Hatch, who is about %
years old, has been in the Reform School
and is now serving sentence of 60 days for
larceny. When the sentence is out he will
have to account for several other charges
which will be brought against him. johnson
is in for keeping rumshop and nuisance
Both men were greatly exhausted by their
effort to escape and are sorry they made the
attempt.

The digestive system is wholly out of order and
Diarrhea or Constipation may be a symptom or
the two may alternate. There are often Hemor-
